Promoting the integrated development of education, technology, and talent is the trend and policy guidance. But where is the lever for development? The Ministry of Education has submitted a new answer sheet and a new blueprint. Recently, the Ministry of Education held a kickoff meeting for the joint construction of the National University Regional Technology Transfer and Transformation Center (Jiangsu). This also means that the first regional technology transfer and transformation center for universities in China has been officially established. The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Education introduced at the meeting that this regional center will focus on the major strategic needs of the country and the needs of industrial development. In areas where innovation factors are concentrated, industrial foundations are solid, capital markets are active, and strategic roles are prominent, combined with regional advantageous industries, a systematic layout construction will be carried out. The aim is to take industrial demand as the driving force, gather advantageous universities and innovation resources, create a "dual center" for developing new quality productivity and supporting teacher-student innovation, realize the "two-way rush" of universities and enterprises, and enable more scientific and technological achievements of universities to be transformed into real productivity as soon as possible. What are the considerations for establishing a national university regional technology transfer and transformation center? At the beginning of 2024, the management of National University Science and Technology Parks will be led by the Ministry of Education. The Ministry of Education has taken this as an opportunity to propose the overall concept of a "center+node" university science and technology achievement transformation system, with regional centers as hubs and national university science and technology parks as nodes, and exploring the construction of regional centers as a key link Introduction by the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Education. The person in charge also revealed that the focus of the regional center is to promote the deep integration of national advantageous universities and regional advantageous industries, stimulate the multiplier effect of school local integration, and support national strategies and regional development in a targeted and organized manner. What is the purpose of establishing this regional center to solve? Addressing the five major issues of 'inability to transfer', 'lack of improvement', 'inability to transfer', 'unwillingness to transfer', and 'reluctance to transfer' technological achievements in universities The person in charge provided a detailed answer to the relevant key tasks: in response to the problem of the disconnect between university scientific and technological achievements and industry demand, and the inability to transform, we need to focus on strategic industry needs, strengthen demand driven and goal oriented research topics, establish a research and development model of "enterprise problem setting and collaborative answering" through methods such as "unveiling the list and leading the way", attract the most innovative and dynamic research teams and projects with market application prospects to settle in regional centers, strengthen school enterprise scientific research cooperation, carry out research and development and achievement transformation. To address the issue of low maturity and "no improvement" in scientific and technological achievements, we need to create an attractive public transformation platform, strengthen concept verification and pilot testing, and build a "one-stop" public transformation platform jointly built, managed, and shared by universities across the country. This will form a "full chain" service capability from technology research and development, concept verification, small-scale and pilot testing to small-scale trial production, providing full process and full cycle services for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements. In response to the lack of specialized ability and inability to transfer among technology transfer talents, it is necessary to establish a professional operation team for achievement transformation, create a training and development system for technology managers, strengthen service guarantees and policy incentives. Explore market-oriented science and technology innovation education, guided by the transformation of scientific and technological achievements projects, and cultivate applied innovative talents through practical work. In response to the issue of insufficient attention and unwillingness to transfer from various parties, it is necessary to play the role of an evaluation "baton" and "wind vane", and regularly evaluate the effectiveness of regional center construction and the transformation of achievements of participating universities in the regional center. Select and publish typical cases of university transformation in relevant fields. In response to the existing institutional bottlenecks and the problem of "not daring to transfer", we need to deepen the reform of scientific and technological achievement management, actively explore innovation in the mechanism of achievement transformation, explore the empowerment of scientific and technological achievements and asset management reform, improve the due diligence exemption mechanism, and further stimulate the innovation enthusiasm of scientific researchers. What support policies will follow closely after the establishment of the regional center? The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Education told reporters that the Ministry of Education focuses on playing a policy guiding role, mobilizing the strength of universities across the country, and forming a joint force with Jiangsu to jointly promote the construction of regional centers. Select around 20 universities as participating universities for each industry direction, establish a normalized docking mechanism, and promote the conversion and landing of projects with conversion prospects; Coordinate various resources to increase support, gather the most innovative and dynamic research teams to carry out technological innovation and achievement transformation in regional centers; Support the cultivation and evaluation mechanism of innovative students in regional centers, create innovative and entrepreneurial courses and high-quality textbooks, and improve the quality of applied innovation talent cultivation; Support the construction of a national university achievement supply and demand service platform in regional centers, host the China University Science and Technology Achievement Fair, and create a 'university brand' for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements; Actively promote the deepening of the empowerment reform of job-related scientific and technological achievements in universities participating in regional center construction, and accelerate the exploration of the reform of separate management of job-related scientific and technological achievements assets The person in charge introduced.
